Central Arkansas's new field
Central Arkansas is changing their field to a purple and gray turf, creating a situation similar to Eastern Washington and Boise State. If anything, it looks wose and will definitely cause some eye problems for both the teams and the fans.

I think it looks better than BSU or EWU fields. I like the contrasting colors instead of one solid red or blue.

With all due respect, that is the ugliest turf I've ever seen (after bsu).bellsduck wrote:I think it looks better than BSU or EWU fields. I like the contrasting colors instead of one solid red or blue.

Call me crazy, but I agree. I kind of like it and it doesn't give me a headache like BSU.bellsduck wrote:I think it looks better than BSU or EWU fields. I like the contrasting colors instead of one solid red or blue.

Re: Central Arkansas's new field
Me too. The contrasting colors is a big improvement over the solids of BSU and EWU.L Perry wrote:+1freedjr wrote:Call me crazy, but I agree.

Isn't bad, but I'm not a fan of the trend. I enjoy the "green" of football fields, and baseball diamonds.
Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason why the Gunpowder Treason should ever be forgot... But what of the man? I know his name was Guy Fawkes and I know, in 1605, he attempted to blow up the Houses of Parliament. But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas. I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea; cannot touch it, or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love... And it is not an idea that I miss //////// Follow me one Tumblr/blog http://f***-kp.tumblr.com/

To me, artificial football fields should look like what they are trying to replicate, real grass that is typically green.Supreme wrote:Isn't bad, but I'm not a fan of the trend. I enjoy the "green" of football fields, and baseball diamonds.

I like it. Half the damn field is painted anyway, why not just go all out and make it a whole new color scheme.greenyellow wrote:To me, artificial football fields should look like what they are trying to replicate, real grass that is typically green.Supreme wrote:Isn't bad, but I'm not a fan of the trend.
